American Marconi Wireless News - Netlist Files Legal Action Against Samsung in the U.S. International Trade Commission

C.K. Hong, Netlist's Chief Executive Officer, said, "Since its founding in 2000, Netlist has pioneered innovations in advanced memory technologies. With this action, Netlist is seeking remedial orders that direct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to stop Samsung memory products that infringe on Netlist's intellectual property from entering the country."

In the complaint, Netlist asked the ITC to investigate whether Samsung, Google and Super Micro infringe U.S. Patent Nos. 12,737,366, 10,025,731, 10,268,608, 10,217,523, 9,824,035, and 12,308,087. Each of these patents reads on one or more of the following products: DDR5 memory modules, e.g., DDR5 RDIMM, UDIMM, SODIMM, and MRDIMM, and high-bandwidth memory ("HBM").

The ITC is an independent, non-partisan agency that investigates and makes determinations against unfair acts in the import trade that violate U.S. intellectual property rights. ITC investigations proceed on an expedited basis, commonly progressing to trial within a year.

Netlist is represented by Sterne Kessler Goldstein & Fox, with the legal team led by Danny Yonan, and Irell & Manella, with the legal team led by Jason Sheasby.
